Re: Just a rant
That's nuts. Many e-commerce sites save your cart for months or more. In fact, some send you reminders that there are items in your cart. I mean why in the heck would a vendor want to remove items from a cart that may turn into an order??? Maybe it's a website limitation and not a business decision.
I've heard good things about GMC Pauls, but have to say that each time I looked at their pricing + shipping, I found it to be the same or more than places like Classic Parts (formerly Brother's) and LMC.

Re: Just a rant
What I understand about Paul's is that products that are not right or are problematic he discontinues them. I don't mind paying a little more for quality parts that are going to work like they should like glass seals.

Seems like one of those parts was a window regulator packaged and sold under several brand names, but all made in the same Chinese plant. As I recall, he finally started getting good ones from a company in Taiwan. (I could be wrong about the specific part, but you get the idea.) I just got my 69 truck back earlier this year and had forgotten all about H&H, so I need to check them out again. https://hhclassic.com/
